Korg Legacy MS20 controller issues

Post by slirak » Sun May 31, 2009 6:43 pm

Anyone out there using the Korg Legacy with the MS 20 replica controller and L8.03?

None of the indicator LED's are working (except for power on). Am I missing a setting, or is it just Live (8.03)?
They do work in standalone mode.

Also, was I dreaming or didn't turning the unit on set all plugin parameters to match the controller knobs in some L8 version? Doesn't work now, well some parameters get set but that's almost worse than none...

it´s not live, neither 8...nor 6...or what ever
All indicator LED's will work only in standalone mode,
when using as a plugin only the power on LED will work :wink:

Was that in TFM? I looked but I couldn't find a word about the controller in there. Is there a separate manual for the controller? Wonder where I've misplaced that one.... Can't seem to find such a manual on the web either, but Korg's FAQ confirms what you say. Meh. So they've been off all those years and I didn't even notice! :oops:

Anyways, what about the "set parameters to reflect knob settings at power on" function not working properly? I've seen at least one more complaint about it on this forum. Anyone had it working in Live, ever? As far as I can tell from the FAQ, that's not a standalone only feature.

just tested here in live 8, and i'm getting the same behavior. seems like live just can't handle the amount of controller data being sent.

power cycling the ms-20 controller in reaper works as it should... all parameters in the VSTi are set to mirror the controller.
